  • 5Beer-y Fun!

    Mark was a phenomenal guide, so knowledgable about brewing, beer, Asheville - everything. Gave great behind the seasons info on how things work, and a wonderful amount of background on the history of beer. Great time AND great beer to taste too!

  • 4Mike was a fun tour...

    Mike was a fun tour guide. We liked some of his beer choices. We felt like he took us to less popular breweries. The tour should have included some snacks along the way because we walked a lot. It would have been nice to see some of the bigger breweries in action. We did meet some nice people from Kentucky which made our tour fun.

  • 4For beer nerds!

    You have to be REALLY into learning about beer and the process of making it. I went on the tour expecting it to be more social. But the guide, Mark was very knowledgeable and friendly!! It was fun!

    Learned a lot! Mark was very knowledgeable. Beers were varied and leant themselves to a fuller understanding of beer making.
